As Satan is leaving, Marty whips a vinyl record across the -room and cuts off one of Satan's hands. This hand is what allows you to -use all the powers in the game. - -Check out the screenshot below for one of the first panels of the -storyline: - -#+caption: SEUM Story -[[https://img.cleberg.net/blog/20210101-seum/seum_story.png]] - -* Gameplay -To accomplish each level, you will need to get to the final blue portal -under a certain time limit. You can beat a level by getting to the -portal before the time meter runs out or "Dominate" a level by beating -it within a shorter time limit (noted by a bright red/orange color in -the time meter). - -The portal is usually set behind locked gates, protected by dangerous -defenses, or in hard-to-reach places. To reach the portal, you'll need -to go through any existing orange portals, light all yellow beacons, -avoid things like fireballs and blades, or use any satanic power orbs -lying around. These special abilities include: - -- Gravity -- Teleport -- Rewind -- Spawn platform -- Roar (DLC) -- Rocket (DLC) -- Shadow world (DLC) - -For the main storyline, there are nine floors to beat. Each floor -contains nine regular levels, one boss level, and one bonus level; -although you don't technically need to beat all levels to advance to the -next floor. - -#+caption: SEUM Floor Menu -[[https://img.cleberg.net/blog/20210101-seum/seum_floor.png]] - -* In-Game Screenshots -The main menu gives you plenty of options for tuning your system, -playing main levels, playing the DLC, or exploring the other game modes. - -#+caption: SEUM Main Menu -[[https://img.cleberg.net/blog/20210101-seum/seum_menu.png]] - -Once you enter a level, you can look around and strategize before -starting. Clicking any button will start the menu, and you'll have to -restart if you die. One of the great things about SEUM is that it has -great keyboard shortcuts.
